Being praised in a dream is read as a wish for recognition, or as quiet acknowledgement of your own effort. Tradition sees it as self-worth asking to be fed.

My Cosmic Code has a private dream journal. Write a dream down and the app picks out the symbols in it, shows what dream books say about them and, over time, which words recur across your entries. The journal is stored on your device only.
